Adaptation of Renal Function From Birth to One Year
... concentration of urea and nonurea solutes from cortex to medulla. The disposition of the vasa recta along the Henle's loop allows these vessels to act as countercurrent exchangers and thus maintain the high osmolality created in the medulla. During antidiuresis, when ADH secretion is maximal, the co ...

The Urinary System
... The urine that reaches the renal pelvis is almost ready for excretion from the body. As it travels through the rest of the urinary system, it is subjected to small adjustments in composition before it is voided, or released. Owing to the action of the nephron, blood leaving the peritubular capillari ...
